Savvy Comedy – Jobseekers
In for another fun evening at The Tap? Personally, I didn’t take much persuading. Just the thought of a pint (or two) of the old mango cider got me here by teleportation – the comedians on offer being a mere bonus! Bit of a BOGOFF offer; buy two pints and get a comedian thrown inContinue reading “Savvy Comedy – Jobseekers”
Savvy Book – Melmoth
Sarah Perry’s ‘Melmoth’. Perry’s latest novel centres around the deceased character of Melmoth, a lady who sweeps in and out of the world of the living, swishing around her black garments, and preying upon the vulnerable, repeatedly failing in her attempts to find a companion with whom she can share her eternal purgatory.

Savvy Poem – This is Important
Stop! Go away! Shut up! It’s not going to make me any faster, if you keep shouting at me… … if you keep telling me to get ready! It’s not going to make me any faster, if you tell me to brush my teeth, or find my PE kit. I’ve still got to get ready,Continue reading “Savvy Poem – This is Important”

Apperception
To sleep, or not to sleep? That is the problem. But to sleep, for the obedient wrongdoer, in the aftermath of a wrongdoing done, is not much of a muchness of a problem. A wrongdoing done to another, a deception, is not much of a problem to be borne, if one was ordered byContinue reading “Apperception”
